On the 23rd of January 2022, it will be a hundred and ten years since the birth of Boris Pokrovsky (1912–2009). Having started at Christmas, the festival commemorating Pokrovsky, an outstanding opera director and teacher, theorist and practitioner, the main director of the Bolshoi (1952, 1955, 1956-63, 1970-82) and the founder of the Chamber Musical Theatre, which became a part of the Bolshoi as its Chamber Stage four years ago, will continue until almost the end of January.
